As the count down to Bitcoin halving continues I feel I should put it up here for all to see and take every necessary and relevant steps to fill their bags as time permits. As we all know when ever Bitcoin halving is around the corner, there is always a surge in Bitcoin price from its current price to a higher one. As it stands now, we all know that the Bitcoin market is heading for a bull because of lately, there have been increase in Bitcoin price which has been long expected by the Crypto community.

Hopefully, this forth coming halving would trigger a new all time high as the case maybe and as such the market is still early to enter. While doing this, use funds you can afford to lose as no one can predict the direction of the market.

It would also be nice to keep track of the halving count down and activities and to do that, the link below can help you out by taking you to the coin market cap page where it is visible to see.


https://coinmarketcap.com/

Click on the Bitcoin halving at the front page, there you would see the halving details.

If you look at previous history, halving and its influence on Bitcoin price spikes are indeed true. However, this also cannot be the next benchmark. Why do I say that, because the current supply of bitcoin is already and is almost approaching 21 million, maybe there are only 2.5 million left for all the bitcoin supply to be on the market. Of course, the influence of the halving is no longer very significant on price increases. And only mass adoption and use in the real world can influence prices because the more bitcoins are bought or used, the more demand there will be.


I'm sure this time Bitcoin's halving will still be able to print ATH.

There is a lot of panic amount people that are willing to stack up their bags ahead of the bitcoin halving that is coming up and the bull run that is expected to also take place and mark a new all-time high of bitcoin. FOMO shouldn’t make anyone to borrow money or use money for other important purpose and put into bitcoin. Bitcoin is said to be volatile but can make you rich in the long term if you save ahead for the bull run.

At the moment, bitcoin have been on an uptrend but don’t make FOMO to make a mistake to invest when you’re not ready for it. Take your time, use DCA to keep accumulating. Even after the halving is not still a bad time to invest as bitcoin wouldn’t have marked a new all-time high yet. It is better to invest steadily without a cut rather than investing and still taking out of the investment to solve personal financial issues again.


The market direction can’t be predicted, but when investing in bitcoin using the term “what you can afford to lose” shouldn’t be attributed to bitcoin but rather “what you can afford to invest for the long term”. Bitcoin investment is proven to be profitable in the long run, so that term doesn’t befit bitcoin investment more but it can be used for altcoins that mostly don’t make it in the long run for profitable investment.

It’s always a trend that when bitcoin halving occurs the bitcoin price increases and always surpasses the exiting ATH. There are many halving count down timers on different site, timers are usually not correlated or exactly correct because of the divergence in the time used to mine a block. So as such the only genuine or accurate timer is that the halving period happen, 210,000 blocks apart from each other and the next halving is at block 840,000. The time usually varies but the difference isn’t that much from the ones calculated from by this timers except if there is a huge hashrate changes which will still need to Happen every 2016 blocks since the difficulty target will adjust each of those time.

Here are some of the timers on different sites



Although after the halving the price is expected to increase but no one is so sure of when, and say such my advice to investors entering their first halving is to never buy more than they can afford to hodl for long time. Do not get carried away with greed of price increase and invest too much. The trend could change this time around and we might not see any change of price significantly for almost a year or even more.

There are many halving count down timers but they are all estimation tools. You can feel curious about when halving will happen but don't worry because around the halving block, you will see many news on big websites like Coindesk, Cointelegraph, Coinbase, social media and even in bitcointalk.
Most Reliable Halving Countdown? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5403419.0)

Usually Bitcoin will need like 6 to 9 months after a halving to make its all time high. It can make it quicker or slower this time but if you have it in mind, you will be able to take profit around all time high price.

I know investment relates to time and each investor will have different waiting time for investment plan. If you can have your plan for like 2 or 3 halvings, you will get massive profit. If you want to do it, you must not use all money for investment and need to have cash to use as well so that you won't have to sell your bitcoin.

The historical trend suggests a potential surge in prices. While it's an exciting time for the market, it's equally important to approach it cautiously. Only invest what you can afford to lose, as market directions can be unpredictable. Tracking the halving countdown and related activities is a wise move.

Based on coinmarketcap site, bitcoin halving time countdown left 140 days and without four months later we are celebrating bitcoin halving and most excited will new all time of high of bitcoin price record happen again? Always have good side of halving time because bitcoin potential will raise to higher price and left 140 days before halving we can see bitcoin up drastically.
Have some opinion with before halving not positive side with bitcoin will raise and need several months later after halving but for this halving time I sure bitcoin will raise up before not after halving. My prediction one month left before halving bitcoin have chance raise above $55,000 looking current bitcoin price today.

All time highs, highest price each year show prices when people are most FOMOing and corrections after that show panic around the market.

To see the price growth of Bitcoin, see how it sustainably grows with time, people must be enlightened and see a picture with lowest price for each year, each cycle. Lowest prices show us a reality that when the market is most boring and most of people are panic, it still shows a steady growth trend.

Yearly candles (https://charts.bitbo.io/yearly-candles/) can help you to see the steady trend with Yearly lowest price (bottom of each yearly candle)

The timer is inaccurate and predicts base on time, but this prediction cannot be accurate, or at least to an error standard of hours, and the error may extend for days, so watching and tracking the history of Bitcoin halving is useless because it is the timing that is predicted and because its effect on the price is long-term. Therefore, even after several months of halving, the price may be in a good range that enables you to easily double your money before we reach ATH next year.

FOMO here and thee. So many topics regarding bitcoin and the halving and also what would be the outcome of bitcoin after the halving. Seems no one is talking about the acceptance of the Bitcoin ETF we are expecting next month. Or have we lost hope that the application would not be accepted? However, only those who have not bought bitcoin earlier this year or last year would be panicking this period and struggling to buy even if it is a small amount. There have been awareness advising people to buy bitcoin since last two years and people took the advantage and got prepared for it while some persons where ignorant and did not buy. I would be here to see people that will benefit and be happ. Also ill not miss to see those who will regret because they did not participate earlier.

Thank you for this, after all, it will help the new ones in the crypto space and those who are new to BTCT. Yet, I implore everyone not to go for a specific halving time, there are slightly days different in many places, so it's wise not to believe it's going to be a particular day.

Also, halving itself is not the reason why people buy cryptocurrency but the sentiment that is attached to it, this is why it will might not make Bitcoin achieve any tangible bull run on that day, nonetheless, the post effects will happen most weeks and months after. There are pre-halving effects also, which is partly what we are seeing now in the Bitcoin market, more is to come or not come, and I believe that it would be fine if we plan our trading and investments appropriately. But for the fact that Bitcoin is almost $45,000 even before the halving of 2024, I wonder what would happen after the halving next year.

A situation like this has never happened with all the past charts I've ever studied about it and the halving subject, only time will tell us what will happen with the coin this time.

Is any link needed? Probably some newbies can see it useful. As for me, I do not need to see those halving link, there are many of them online.

What I do is to track the block. The block to halving is block 840000, we are on block 820261 now. In April next year, there will be halving at block 840001 if 10 minute block reward is used to calculate it. It is as easy as that.

The block reward will be halved at block number 840000 not 840001.
In other words, the block number 839999 will be the last block in which 6.25 new bitcoins will be generated and the block number 840000 will be the first block in which 3.125 new bitcoins will be generated.

I very well agree with you on this,  because the current Bitcoin supply is well enough to accommodate the current Bitcoin market demand and at that, just 2 million plus left Bitcoin can only make no significant effect on Bitcoin price so for sure we may have to wait longer after the bitcoin halving to see the next Bitcoin all-time high price and also we have to wait 6-9 months after bitcoin halving in the last before recording all-time high,  but now I don't know how that may be now that the current unmind Bitcoin is very low.

But let's see how all that goes because according to the timeline it is expected to see the block divide around April so for that the current Bitcoin state where the market is showing bullish sentiments.

Bitcoin Halving is definitely coming next year and we are precise about it, this is a period where the market goes more profitable because it's highly volatile after the incident of the halving has taken place, when we hold, we are part of those positioned to experience the same opportunity that comes with bitcoin Investment to this period, we are likely to see it coming within the first half of the year 2024 and am not sure if the specific date is yet announced where it will took place precisely.

This halving seems to be very interesting with rumor that Bitcoin Spot ETF applications from companies in the USA. will be approved in bulk. The matter is will SEC. approves those applications and rumor is if SEC make approval, it will not be for a single application, one by one, but will be in bulk to give fair competition for those companies that submit their applications to SEC.

I believe without Bitcoin Spot ETFs in the USA. Bitcoin will have its bull run with effects from halving. Bitcoin Spot ETFs will only be catalyst for the bull run but it is not most important contributor for it. I like others, want to see Bitcoin Spot ETF approvals.

Announced? Who should announce that?

Take note that there is no way to know the exact time of halving and there is nothing to be announced.
All we know is that the halving will be at block number 840000 and we can only have estimates on when that block will be mined.

A countdown runs to zero, it indicates an action is meant to take place after the countdown elapses. What is the countdown meant for? Keeping track of when the halving is meant to happen can help you maintain discipline and stay more committed to gathering more bitcoins for yourself since you know how limited the time is. But should the Halving be the target to hold bitcoins up to? NO!

There is a life after the halving, a life where bitcoins will still exist, we also have to plan on what action we will take during the halving to ensure we still have bitcoin after.

Count down usually is of good importance because that looks like a reminder of a particular event to occur at a particular time as the case may be. Bitcoin halving is an event as you have said and very much important in the Bitcoin community but however, that does not really mean it to trigger a spike in Bitcoin price but probably it could be that way. So many enthusiast would take the opportunity of bagging more with the mindset of price increase which does not happen instantly.

I think you have an idea In your last paragraph of life after Bitcoin and this is what people don't realise till the halving is over and they fail to plan and prepare for the aftermaths of the halving.

The prediction of the halving is from April 2024 and the time is still far but we can accumulate more to our portfolios. It is good that you remind us the forthcoming halving and also encouraging us to buy and store Bitcoins for the bull run that is coming. For now the price slow in the rising side and the reducing side unlike the past few days when the price was skyrocketing and it was making people to be smiling and others were angry because they have not gotten enough.

That what all are waiting for. The new all time high will be the time many will sell their Bitcoin and settle scores with debtors and bills. New millions will be made.

Investing in Bitcoin at this moment in view of the halving and preceding bull market should be done with every form of intentionality, this will means if you must maximize the outcome of this cycle, you must be projecting in the long term, that way you get less effect from volatility, price surge and market sentiments. But if you are projecting in the short term, you get to feel every of these moves in the market, the long term keeps you at a bearish advantage, because the totality of every movement in the market leads to a further rise in the price of Bitcoin.

The total dynamics of Bitcoin is mostly characterized in a bullish manner if only the cycle is understood properly and investment made in such projection and that is why it's important you use funds you are hoping to make use of after a long time to invest in Bitcoin so you will be able to properly maximize profits

I've seen so many bitcoin halving countdown on different sites and it shows that they have a different time on every each of them. I guess that they are all estimates of the bitcoin halving. I'm personally not much exited about the halving to be honest as I experienced it a few times already, the thing that makes me exited is the possibility that bitcoin price can drop after the bitcoin halving. I know that it would be the last chance to accumulate bitcoin as much as I can on it's lowest price possible before bull run, so yeah, I'm anticipating a price dump after halving and I'm currently preparing my moon bags to be filled.

I’m sure different countdowns have different methods of trying to predict the exact time of the halving. It isn’t an exact science though. Things like luck and network growth play a little part in determining exactly when it will happen. I think like you it is also possible the price will drop immediately after the halving when people realize it takes a year or 18 months for the market to peak once the new supply is halved.

Yeah obviously, I believe that Bitcoin will be hitting Ex-ATH before Halving because the ETF approval is a good sign for a Bull player. Because Bitcoin ETF approval will lead to mass adoption of Bitcion all over the world and I hope that before halving, Bitcion might be hit his previous ATH, and with halving the bull player may carry the price to 150k or 180k.
Moreover, a fake ETF approval date can bring up a 2–3% correction, so when a real announcement happens, Bitcoin can easily make a huge gain before halving because if the SEC gets the approval of the Bitcoin ETF, a lot of money and big game players can come to the market automatically, which can cause a rise in the Bitcoin price. So therefore, I believe that Bitcoin ETF approval will bring a rise in the Bitcoin price. It's a comforting and gratifying thing for Bitcoin enthusiasts if they've invested well in a bear market.

Thank you for the link but I guess there's no need to trace and monitor the timer since we all know that bitcoin moves unpredictably. Yes, it may help a little but it could be inaccurate at some point. As long as we have maximum investment with bitcoin in our portfolio, that is the most important thing. Just don't get tempted selling when bitcoin price surge because for sure there will be price surges and price skyrocketing even after bitcoin halving. Patience is the key.

Bitcoin halving now becoming imminent. And it's good everyone is excited to see it, except for those who have not decided to invest in bitcoin up to these days because of fear of losing.

However, I still believe in the halving tradition even though the increase in Bitcoin itself also has many factors. Sometimes there are many updates to Bitcoin and its network to make it better and more efficient when entering the halving area which can increase investor interest.

Yep waiting for bitcoin halving. Halving is near and we all are still waiting for it. I am waiting for halving because I am new investor and in invest small amount I can effort. The price of bitcoin will touch the moon after halving that's the reason for waiting for halving. Halving is soon hold buddy as you can..

Bitcoin already shows it potential every halving after this event you will expect another pump from the market people always want to seeing this to check the opportunity but if you are already experience from the previous you know already that you don't need to wait for the halving timer and grab the opportunity for the every market dumps if you are in the long term goal and just sitting and relax to wait for the next ATH of the market.

No doubt, the upcoming halving is an influential event in Bitcoin's price movements, but for now it seems it isn't the biggest thing to consider. It seems the influence of the Bitcoin spot ETF is more powerful right now. It seems to steal away the show so much so that the bullishness of the price these days may not actually be caused by the anticipated halving but probably by the potential Bitcoin spot ETF approval. This approval may actually bring in so much money than just the halving. This might even be enough for the price to be pushed to a new ATH before the halving.

The only thing that matters right now, as long as there is no halving, is that we only accumulate cryptocurrencies that we like and know will give us a profit. We know that often, as the halving is approaching, there is a rally in the price value of Bitcoin, and the top altcoins are also pulled into the market.

It's difficult because we know that there is a halving and then we don't have any holdings, so it doesn't matter, meaning whether there is a halving or not, if we can accumulate crypto assets, it's fine.

With bitcoin halving, we should all have cash ready to use and should be prepared to lose it. That way, when we reap the results, it will definitely feel more special. Likewise, if for example something happens that you don't want (a loss), it certainly won't surprise you too much. However, in my opinion, it is unlikely that Bitcoin will experience a price decline that will cause losses for investors. So investing in bitcoin and doing the halving, I feel like I'm in a safe zone. But even so, we must remain careful. Because the market cannot be predicted with certainty.

Without a doubt the possible approval of a bitcoin ETF is stealing the spotlight to the upcoming halving, but this is not bad news at all, in fact this is great, as if an ETF was indeed approved during the next year and you added the halving on top of it, the growth that we will see will be many times higher than what we could see independently from both of those news.

So all what is left is to wait until this happens, however if for some reason it did not happened then a correction is to be expected, as keeping the current levels seems impossible to me without that hype.

FOMO is one of the biggest factors in making a mistake in investment
from time to time i rethink about the amount of money i have invested and i get those questions like is it enough? should i buy more? especially now that the price is increasing it’s making me want to add more on to the btc i have but then again i don’t have the funds yet i can’t just do dca with the little money i have because i also have to think about the transaction fees so i try my best to fight against FOMO

I believe many BTC users are aware that the bull run is very close to take over from the bear run that reign over two years and some months to caused some hodlers panicking because, they were tired of their hodling in the community. If you look at the market very well, you will know that, there are still opportunity to buy BTC and hodl for that bull run to come because the bull run will get mature from next year for people to feel positive results that will make them to buy more when another bear run come.

Since the price has risen to $44k in this month of december, I guess it will surely get to $50k before the end of this year which is the stage the price will reach before some investors will begin to release their BTC for sale to make something nice from their investment.

If the influence of halving and its effect isn't that significant anymore, how exactly can you tell that it's not influential anymore when we're still talking about it and at the same time a lot of crypto personality and crypto websites are anticipating it by having a calendar? I don't agree that it's going to be insignificant unlike last time, I do believe that it's going to be the same influence as last time. That halving is going to make mining much more difficult and with much difficulty in mining, there's bound to be an increase in demand and with a low supply and slow replenish in the supply since mining rewards got halved and with lower supply and ever increasing demand, the price will only go up from there and that happened because the halving so I wouldn't exactly say that halving has lost its significance when it comes to what's happening in the bitcoin market and the events surrounding the market.

Yes, this is just speculation from me personally considering that the percentage increase in the price of Bitcoin during several halvings has decreased. This cannot be a patent benchmark, because the trend itself is influenced by bitcoin demand itself once again.

The countdown to the BTC halving continues and of course we will see a bull market.

The BTC halving is the moment that many people have been waiting for, who have bought a lot of Bitcoin because they want to quickly get a profit from their investment, and for those who are experienced, they usually don't sell it during the halving because they sell it later during the bull run, and the bull run which is predicted to come in 2025, so the profits will be bigger.

Soon, of course, we will enter 2024 and I think currently Bitcoin is showing good signs because the BTC price has risen quite high, currently it has exceeded $44k. I think for people who haven't bought a lot of BTC or don't have any BTC at all, I think I will feel sad and definitely hope that the price of BTC will fall again.

Before the halving, the price of BTC was always high, but people who bought BTC had to use money that they were ready to lose because the current position is that the price of BTC is already high, but of course it hasn't reached the new level, so there is still a chance to be able to buy BTC, but of course it is very risky. high because no one will know the direction of the market. this is a good topic op. and I can't wait to see bitcoin form a new ath and I think there will definitely be a lot of fomo when btc rises over $69k.

Bitcoin has touched its highest price this year, a few hours ago Bitcoin was close to $45K this is a green signal for the Bitcoin market. First target was $35K Bitcoin market will go to $40K he achieved that target quickly Now Bitcoin target is to touch $50K and I believe it will happen very soon. Currently the Bitcoin market is pumping more than it is dumping which is why we are optimistic that the price of Bitcoin can touch $50K this year itself. If the price of Bitcoin touches $50K this year it will be a new milestone for Bitcoin this year. As a Bitcoin investor we expect Bitcoin to touch the highest price.

The reasonable target is in six number. When Bitcoin will get its price like $100,000 and higher?

I will hold my bitcoin till it get six number for its price because I know it will achieve those high prices. Future supply will decrease, become smaller with each Bitcoin halving and adoption for Bitcoin will be bigger. Price must be higher and from $69,000 for 2021 all time high to $100,000, it is about less than 40% increase.

40% increase is not an impossible growth for Bitcoin and I am really sure it will be there in 2024 and 2025. After that, bear market will come but it is for a next bull market with a new all time high. Soon we will see price under $100,000 is a past, a regret like now it is impossible to see Bitcoin falls to $1,000 like in 2017.

Hodling up to get six number for its price is not easy, even if you are in a position to make a few dreams possible and pay for them not in fiat but in Bitcoin 8). I looked at this posting again today and if you believe it, we could have a Bitcoin price of 250,000$ in 2025. And now looking at the last few weeks, or the whole year 2023 - there has been an increase of +130% and more just in bitcoin. We know that "anything" is possible and I believe that we will have many beautiful days and months again in 2024.

Everyone knows halving will influence Bitcoin price to rise, so there's nothing should be discussed anymore.

Both Bitcoin and fiat are same, it's a currency. So if you sell your fiat for Bitcoin, you're not lose anything since you sell fiat and get fiat. It's a lose if you donate, scammed, hacked or other thing caused by human mistakes.

For everyone that compares the last halving cycle with the next can be wrong this time, I am not betting on this though but it's really something, last halving cycle we don't have ETF approval knocking this hard on the door, also the supply of Bitcoin is far more lower now compare to back then, things might not work out in the same way as 2020 this time.

For me, Bitcoin value don't always rise before the halving is complete and even after it's completed it doesn't surge right away, it takes some months after before price starts appreciating, but this time things can be different, Bitcoin can keep pushing even when the halving is close and also after the halving is completed.

139 days left.
We've only got 365(1/2) days a year and I'm not good with numbers but this makes me think that we're still quite far to end a year but then it's easier to count with months since it's just a few months away.
Needless to say, everyone is happy now because it seems that the impact pre-halving goes to the altcoins market.

We know previous 3 halvings of Bitcoin and each halving greatly affected the price of Bitcoin. The upcoming 2024 halving will also see a big change in price as we know that miners will have their block reward halved. After the first bitcoin launch in 2009, miners received 50 bitcoins as a block reward per block.

As the block reward is halved every 4 years, miners get 25 after that 12.5 and then 6.25 respectively in the 3 halvings. Block reward will be changed to 3.12 in the upcoming halving. As the block reward halves, the supply of new bitcoins to the market will gradually decrease and the price of bitcoins will continue to rise. Investors are getting more curious and making it very easy for Bitcoin prices to surpass previous all-time high.

Your analysis is a new angle to look at the coming halving next year, since almost all the bitcoin have been minted then we'll likely not see the impact of ATH. But from the excitement about the halving, I believe that even if the halving does not reach it's full potential, the anticipation of it can still make us to see a new height of ATH, because I believe that the crypto market has structured itself to hit massive bull run after every halving. Although this will be my first halving experience since i got involved in bitcoin, I'm eagerly looking forward to how the event of halving will trigger the ATH. Despite bitcoin, not been 100% predictable, due to it's volatility, I'm still hopeful that we'll have a massive bull run, because the indicators are there, we're expecting the much talked about ETF, I'm positive that if it happens, then it'll aid the bull run, because demand for bitcoin will increase.

That will mostly depend on the price of the bitcoin at that place that we can see what will be the price of the bitcoin when someone have already in their portfolio. If it goes somehow high then there will be too much volatility that how can the users will manage it.

Also another situation is that the price of bitcoin near the halving will be too high to obtain. That's why mostly users are saying to buy the Bitcoin before the price has been raised and before the next halving.

Everyone is gathering bitcoin in different amount because they know well that halving is coming so if we want to reap reward then we should buy as more as we can afford. Count down is started but I think Bull season is entered now because the price touched 44k$ which is a higher price as we compared the current price with precious one.

We are unable to predict the accurate date and day on which halving will come about but it is sure that halving is going to be happen in 2024. People having bitcoin and other beneficial coins in their wallet will be in profit but all other who missed this opportunity will regret until next halving appears. Coming halving will be productive and more valuable than all terminated halving.

The charm of halving will remain eternal in Bitcoin, but the influence on price increases will experience differences from the first halving onwards. We can observe this if we observe the graph of Bitcoin's price increase after the halving, there is a decrease in the percentage increase in price, but Bitcoin is able to print a new ATH with each increase. The saturation point will also have an effect over time, triggering a stable response when a price halving occurs, this applies to every chart.

Maybe it's a big event or milestone like an ETF, a network upgrade to make it better, mass adoption or other factors besides halving that can move prices. I just think it's more different to look for an angle in looking at Bitcoin prices from several influences.

We are doing great at the moment while we are getting closer and that's the important part, we could have get closer and that could have resulted with a bad situation but that did not happen and we are dealing with something that's getting better and higher. So, the issue is right now that if we can keep it up like this, if we can keep going high, or just stay 40k+ during the next few months during this period then we could feel like it's going to be doing a lot better.

This could be something that may benefit everyone, that could be something that would be quite troublesome if we ended up going down, this is why we need to try to do better and just keep the price higher for as long as we could possibly do that if we can.

With current predictions, it is likely BTC has yet to reach its estimated ATH. No doubt $40k will be achieved, but this still is in prospects.
Buy the dip and HoDL, is the advice that's to be very well considered mostly as we are nearing the time of halving.
Am anticipating this event and hope to see how positively I would earn from the halving. I expect everyone to do Same and keep their keypad and notes nearby to take down a few pointers that would be very helpful later on.

I agree with you. This could be the last relevant halving, after that we will have almost the full amount of bitcoin in circulation and the rewards will be quite low. Theoretically all this should happen because bitcoin's price will be much higher than today's value. I think that the price will increase mainly because there will be more people interested in buying bitcoin. Of course the halving will have some importance but again, as I said before, that influence won't be as noticeable as in the past.

The exact time for Bitcoin halving could differ from one site to another. However, the difference is small. The most essential thing here is to get ready for the big event. Don't just sit back and watch it happen as if you don't care because it's important since it only happens once every four years. Some people might accumulate Bitcoin while others wait for the halving to occur before investing; whatever they do, the most important thing is that they are prepared for it and not letting it happen without doing anything about it.

I think it would be bigger this time. We saw how big the impact was with the previous one, which left an impression to people of this day. There's a bigger possibility for a bigger pump given how big is the difference with hype, now that more companies and people are acknowleding this industry's potential unlike before wherein most of the things are covered with doubt. However, it won't happen in an instant 'coz it would still accummulate enough interest if it is just with its market price. Some of us are just falling from our own assumptions. Demand is simply higher right now as well as volume which are enough factors to tell the possible outcome of this upcoming halving.

Many have been waiting for a long time, and the level of anticipation is high because many have been holding and are simply waiting for the green candles to recover the money they have lost from the market. As everyone is aware, historically, Bitcoin has had a culture of halving during this event, though there will always be a hike in price both before and following the event there is usually a record-breaking spike. and you know one thing I love about Bitcoin is the analysis the predictions and the analysis just for the interest of the market,  once the reward is halved then that is what brought about halving, and once the supply of new bitcoins reduces and the prices increase then people will be getting more interested because everyone wants to benefit when they can, so then there will be an increase in demand and then more boost in the market.

I'm not saying it's bad news. That's good news. Well, it may be bad from a certain perspective because this is the entry of the fiat guys into Bitcoin and they might change the rules of the game with all their powers and influence, but since we're in the context of price speculation here, this is definitely a good thing. $100,000 is now a much easier target with traditional funds eagerly waiting for the green light. A Bitcoin spot ETF approval is that light. It could be granted anytime prior to the halving. With these two factors, 2024 is a very bullish year for Bitcoin.

I cannot deny, it is also a fact that Bitcoin's popularity continues to soar, and national governments are starting to take positive action. The impact will clearly result in a surge in volume if this continues to run smoothly, and make the bitcoin market more mature.

I think the market is over heating with news about Bitcoin Spot ETFs in the USA. It is not a first year, companies submit their applications for Bitcoin Spot ETFs. It has been happening in the last 10 years that is a long time of waiting.

In previous years, with previous applications, SEC. simply announced that they refused those applications without giving any reason and without any direct talk with those companies. This year, we are witnessing something different with more friendly answers and communication from SEC with those companies. It sheds kind of positive lights that SEC. will make approvals for Bitcoin Spot ETFs in USA. soon.

Though I am positive about that chance, I am still neutral that Bitcoin will have its bull run after the halving even SEC. won't approve any Bitcoin Spot ETF application.

People should have already stacked up by now because it's kind of FOMO which is being spread and there are still two possibilities one Bitcoin will continue increasing without any health which may touch new ATH before the halving itself and the other possibility is that Bitcoin goes through correction phase and that would be the time to accumulate it for bull run which happens post halving. But if you are in for longer run and don't have time to monitor the market then you may enter anytime but it would be wise to check the market sentiments and take a call accordingly as we should be taking decisions based on FOMO or FUD.

Do you even follow Bitcoin price at all? The previous halving had the smallest impact of all the halvings so far, which should not be surprising since there are fewer Bitcoins left to be mined as the halving goes on. The "impact" was that price forecasts turned out to be grossly overestimated, and we will have to see what happens this next cycle to get a realistic idea of what we can expect in the following ones.

That's what's going to make it bewildering. I won't be shocked of the many in this forum reading all the gamuts of topics on this Bitcoin halving but who are going to miss out on this bull run. People usually take for granted information given out to them for free. You know that feeling of nothing good comes cheap, right? The naysayers and watchers will think this is another passing comment not to be taken seriously.

Yes, that should be the attitude. No one here has any excuse of not hodling for the run. At a time like this it's good to get Bitcoin and leave it through 2024 to 2025. Those who are going to scalp the market are not likely to be as profitable as those who will hodl for long.

Yes, it remain few weeks and some days before the end of this year but if you look around the market very well, you will know that something new can still happen before the end of this year that will help those that have been holding for long to use the chance to embrace incomes. Based on what is happening in the market,it show that altcoins investors will also enjoy this bullish season that is about to appear and it will take a long years before the price of Bitcoin and altcoins will decrease. With this few weeks and some days that remain, I think bitcoiners will experience $60,000 before the end of December because the price is still moving between $43,572 and $44,212 which is a sign that investors will still rejoice when the price hit higher.

It's a much discussed topic these days, the Bitcoin halving.
I noticed how mainstream the thought of a next bull cycle in parallel with the next halving is, when i talked to some friends that were not that much into crypto but suddenly started babbling on about the next ATH they are expecting with the next halving.

So I'd propose to have a more nuanced view on the halving event: It's the 4th Halving now. Almost anyone involved with Bitcoin is aware of it and also about the price history in relation to it.
This automatically means the price effect is at least to some degree already priced in to the current exchange rate, compared to the previous cycles. However I still believe there will be a noticeable effect. Just take it with a grain of salt, this is an un-paralleled market and any predictions are still just speculation. Too many other factors also influencing the price of Bitcoin.

That said: Happy hodling/accumulating - never a bad time to do so.

We've been reminding them for so long and even before the halving dates, we've been telling them to stack as much as they can because they might not see these low prices that we've got now.

$40k+ is low? Yes for now because we don't know how high Bitcoin is going to multiply after the halving.

Those experienced holders here will tell the same thing. I know for the beginners it's hard to imagine and believe that, but take it from those who have experienced too many roller coasters, happy and frustrating moments on this market.

If people who are not very familiar with cryptocurrency start talking about Bitcoin, this is a clear sign that we are in a growing market. For further growth, new buyers are needed, those who would believe that very large growth awaits us soon, and of course everyone knows about halving and how it affects the further rise in the price of Bitcoin.

But not everyone knows that sometimes there is a very significant correction before the halving, and this can come as a big surprise to those who are not very familiar with the cryptocurrency market, but they will want to buy now to profit from the upcoming rising market. If it for hold, then they will be able to make a profit, but weak hands may not withstand large corrections.

Bitcoin halving is just ahead, 2024 is when Bitcoin halving will happen. Every year of Bitcoin halving sees a higher price of Bitcoin. But now that the Bitcoin high is observed in the month of December 2023, it is a temporary rise of Bitcoin. So seeing this little bit of Bitcoin rise, high prices are never expected, as high prices can be expected in 2024, the year after the halving 2025. Because every time the high price of Bitcoin is observed since the birth of Bitcoin. Halving started from 2012 till 2020 you will see total of three halvings. The year after the Bitcoin halving saw the Bitcoin price hit its highest price target.

The idea behind the halving is to have a valuable coin that's price will increase over time since for Bitcoin for example, the mining process requires a lot of sophisticated and expensive machines making the investment bigger over the time to mine Bitcoin, then the reward will be 50% less every couple of years which will make it obligatory expensive so the miners could cover the cost.
This remains a little bit theoretical since there is an offer and demand, there is also big whales and companies that have an impact with the price. Even governments can manipulate it a little bit when they seize a large amount or shut down a known service. I expect to see an all time high again in 2024, maybe next November - December.

Yes enthusiastic about it as always. I am not gonna lie but I am a little scared as well. This time I am waiting for my Ledger's wallet balance to go full green as I have saved a good amount of Bitcoins over the period. I have learned many lessons from the past that made me hold BTC no matter what. Then comes the golden period of halving when a lot of emotions and transactions will mix up to tell us the state of our portfolio. There will be peeps in line to get the title of millionaire OR there will be peeps losing the money because they started the investment out of FOMO feelings.

I am 101% sure that there will be a flood of threads where FUD, FOMO, speculations everything will be discussed. This happens every time we close on halving. The mining section gets jolted with fees, transaction accelerators, and whatnot.

I consider it one of the festivals in the Bitcoin world. Why not, there is just so much excitement whenever it comes closer. I hope everyone is holding onto Bitcoins.

And something that's not so new has happened just this hour. We've got a little correction that has happened. So, we step back a bit to $40k and this is a good sign IMO.
It means that there's still some moving on coming or like the usual thing we say that some whales probably took a cash out from the market and will be back again soon as this gives another signal of another moving up.

Well, like I will keep on saying; the first thing you need to do about this halving is to terminate any expectation of a price increase because you may get disappointed just because you expected too much from the poor Bitcoin. Halving doesn’t have any direct impact on the price of bitcoin but a lot of people think it does. Let’s just have a normal halving and if the price will increase, let it do so.

An all time high is imminent but the question is what would likely be the all time high price this time around? Would it be higher than the previous or lower or at normal. These are the questions. All these prices being mentioned are just mere speculations by people who can not even predict their future. The market is very much volatile and halving does not really guarantee what most people are speculating within the Crypto space.

Though I can not say with predictions for a next all time high, I don't know about it, I believe in history and fractals. This means I believe Bitcoin will make it new all time high in a next bull run after the 2024 halving.

I am realistic that it is impossible for Bitcoin to have like x10 or x20 like it does in previous halvings because with higher prices, it will have higher marketcaps and will need more new capital flows in to boost the price up. When price is higher, it will become more expensive in eyes of investors and with barrier and requirement of bigger new capital to boost the price, it will be harder to make exponential bull run curve.

However, until Bitcoin has its new history, I believe with a new halving, a new all time high will be seen.

Pretty sure we pass 70 before the ½ ing as the ½ ing patterns are changing  bigly.

this ½ ing is not a full 50% ½ ing

last 5 blocks are ..

01) 6.25 + 1.22 = 7.47 btc after ½ ing   4.345    58.1% not a ½ ing
02)  "     + 1.37 = 7.62 btc     "              4.495    58.9% not a ½ ing      
03)  "     + 1.64 = 7.89 btc     "              4.765    60.4% not a ½ ing
04)  "     + 1.66 = 7.91 btc     "              4.785   60.4% not a ½ ing
05) "      + 2.05 = 8.30 btc     "              5.175   62.3% not a ½ ing


So these are no longer ½ ings. due to fees running way high for most of 2023 as shown below

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/12/14/EkctI.png





I see the higher fees as the first " it is different this time that " is clearly measure able.

Look how many days of high fees in 2023.

I am predicting we go up  above the ATH sooner  than the ½ ing due to this.

Peak number will be after the ½ ing as usual.

Bitcoin halving comes after four years, the year of this bitcoin halving, the price of bitcoin increased a lot. So every investor is waiting for this time when the price of bitcoin will increase, because every bitcoin halving can be observed. The price of Bitcoin doubled in the year of this halving from what it was in the past. Bitcoin halving is going to start in 2024 so all of you who haven't invested in bitcoin yet, invest in bitcoin fast.

As the Bitcoin halving approaches, there's heightened anticipation for a potential price surge. Recent market trends indicate a bullish environment, raising hopes for new all-time highs. Remember, while historical patterns suggest positive outcomes, the crypto market is unpredictable. 🚀💰

Filling bags because of the halving is not the right approach, better to use mathematical formulas that backed your strategy when buying Bitcoin. Typically Halving didn't make a new ATH but the sentiment behind the people and mining companies, the use of Bitcoin, and the mass adoption bring Bitcoin price to a new ATH. It can be seen from the charts that half of the year to one year later from the halving day price gets to motion, so halving itself should not bring higher prices, but the release of Bitcoins into the market and the mass adoption, ETF, banks as custodian, Fair value accounting, etc. can bring new ATH in Bitcoin price.

You're talking about these from the perspective of someone who is inexperienced enough in this crypto space, sorry to batch on you this way i mean no offense, there are 4 circles in bitcoin and you must realize that after the Halving is what launch us into another phase of these circles and the supply of bitcoin reduces while the demands is high and likewise the market price going higher, what we don't know is the accurate time for this bullrun to begin after halving, but it will surely come.

In times like this, when the bitcoin halving is approaching, we should really double-time save Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency. Many people are taking advantage of the opportunity to get a DCA on the crypto assets that we really want.

Then, every day that comes to us, the percentage of investors who are interested in buying Bitcoin and other top-listed cryptocurrencies in the market is also increasing.

Bitcoin comes like a breeze, it is when they don't expect it does shows his face. Some people are still affected by the last crash and think that the price will not shoot up but I kid you not, Bitcoin price is going to see a new time high very soon because from the calculations, the blocks remaining to be mine to that day is only few and I'm sure the miners will not wait for it to happen in that day, it will start before, and I think we might visit the previous all time high before we start another new all time high very soon.

However, there is this price recovery that is happening fast that I don't really understand, we are not there yet but the way the price came to $40k so quickly, I'm really not getting how far this price will go because if we are really anticipating for $80k new time high as Gray scale predicts and feel ETH will do better, then I think that assertion is wrong, we may see something more upside for bitcoin because miners will only be at lost if Bitcoin is lesser than the current price and their business will not be profitable.

Hmm, well TBH now the 15k to 17k range will never re-appear in the coming timeline, even in the crazy bear market. Just reminding hehe When I entered the crypto market officially haha means direct relation/connection Bitcoin was around 4k and it never re-appeared.

40k is a decent range but for sure I'm expecting the next bear market at least having a bottom around 35k to 40k haha I'm from the future. Making just blind hits.

We are all getting ready for the halving because this is what we had been waiting for in the market. When the price of Bitcoin got to $44k, I knew that the price is still going to fall but making investors was so curious thinking that the price of Bitcoin would keep going bullish. Understanding of the market is what we need to know so that we just don't enter the market like that and blindly keep investing when the price has already become overbought. Bitcoin trading and investment required a clear understanding of the market for us to keep making profits from the market.

They added this like 15 days ago. I think it's a very nice feature. When it was first added it showed there were 140 days, now it says there are 124 days. The halving will happen in about 4 months and in my opinion the real rise will happen then. Currently we are still in the accumulation period, we have a little more time to collect more Bitcoin. The 30k levels were appropriate, now we are at the 42k level, I think it's still a good level to buy. I see it as a buying opportunity until Bitcoin experiences a new ATH, then I will wait and try to adjust my exit points.

If we expect Bitcoin will drop again to $15k-$17k in the next few months, it will be impossible to happen. It was the bottom price of Bitcoin in the first year of bearish season (2022), we almost leave the bearish season now. Even if there is a big FUD in the near future, the hype of Bitcoin halving is bigger. So, the price will keep improving and stay above $40k.

I think it is too early to guess the bottom price in the next bearish season. We even don't reach the bullrun season yet. We need to know how far Bitcoin price to increase in the bullrun season. If it can be above $80k, surely the bottom price is likely above $30k. But since the new ATH isn't achieved yet, we are impossible to guess the next bottom now.

Hmm, maybe it happened that the market sentiment Market sentiment may run against expectations. Because no one has the authority of the market, they will give you what the market wants, which means that it may go in the opposite direction from your expected thought that the price movement in Halving may not be like what we are expecting this time. Can go up to 150k or up to 180k. But we old people have experienced that every time after halving, we have seen a jump in price, and Bitcoin has created its new all-time high, so this time too, we hope that the cycle repest is the same as Bitcoin's ex-ATH break. A new ATH can be created. But let's face it, the price of Bitcoin may not be according to your thoughts or predictions; there is a possibility that it may make a new ATH or it may not. So you are right that you should invest that amount that you can bear to lose, which means that your life cannot be endangered by losing it...

And I think that this time the price of Bitcion will be many times better than the previous one, because this time even those people who own big money have agreed to Bitcion. A level jump can be seen. Let's see what happens!

The point of my conversation is to not put hope on something that isn’t directly equivalent to a bull run. And I’ll say it again that Bitcoin Halving is not directly equivalent to price increase. What we fail to see is that it’s not just about total supply and circulating supply.

They’re cryptocurrencies with total supply of either about the same as Bitcoin or even less than Bitcoin, but they can never compare value with Bitcoin. Even if all remaining Bitcoin is released into the market at once, if there’s more adoption and use cases, it wouldn’t matter, but if not, we’ll face a big value reduction.

Yes, the Halving will reduce what miners earn or let’s say it’ll reduce what is being mined, but our previous Bear runs has not been caused by what Miners are earning (the new Bitcoin). This is only a mechanism to slowly and slowly release Bitcoins into circulation (so it doesn’t impact value of preexisting ones).

The trader was looking for the next halves in the bitcoin and most properly we can expect the same in 2024.Many of my friends who earned during 2020-2021 was back to the trading now.Many trader was go away from the trading after the 28k dollars of the bitcoin price.Now the bitcoin already reach the 42k mark,So the next mark would be the 50k in the market value of bitcoin.Many old investors are making some cash during this bull run market.But if they hold till next month will give them good results.



The trader who want to became the millionaire should use the time during the bull run,because bull run will give them enough money back.The small variation was the output during the bull run.The trader will get more option to invest during the bull run and get bag full of cash.

They should have added this a long time ago and there will always be the countdown to be included even if we're done with that. But I think after a year or two of the halving, there's a need for them to remove it. IMO, the excitement goes there if they'll just leave it there forever and be a main stay put on their page. As it shows, 122D left until the halving comes.

Well, it's an awaited event that we know the impact for the price of Bitcoin will definitely is positive. Like what people are speculating about the bull run is about to come, it's all due to the halving and not with the ETF that's been said to have its countdown as well on the first month of 2024.

This is what many of the investors don't understand. While the market is still giving them the chance to buy, they are ignoring the chance that's been given to them. This is still the accumulation period that everyone can still buy even with the lowest that you can. Just don't miss the time that you should be able to buy because you'll never know if we get to see these prices again when the halving is done. The impact that we've seen from halving for the past years that had it commenced was amazing and the same pattern could go with it.

We will see again the $60k levels soon as that's what the past ATH we've been and then maybe this time, it's not too much to ask though but $100k could be seen.

I've learned from my mistake that I've sold too early and not in the ATHs and that's why I'll also be wiser this time that I'll make my exit points but probably I'll never get out of Bitcoin holding forever. You'll never know if the next ATH could be the 7 digits that we're just talking for so long.

What are you even saying? May you should read yourself again and make amends. Aside from the fact that you are not coherent enough, you are not also right with what I see here, only that I can wisely decipher what you are talking about and on the caution towards halving which many may not be able to understand with the way you structured the whole thing. What I like to tell you now is that, in any market/asset, the economics of demand and supply will always play, not only the supply you kept emphasizing on. And with Bitcoin, there is no way demand would not prevail over supply, this is simply because halving is a tradition, and this tradition attracts a whole lot of investors to buy the coin and help it increase its market capitalization.

This has always being happening during the time of halving, and I don't think this time (2024) will be different. However, it's not the halving itself that is causing the buying as it can't inflate Bitcoin by itself but the mindset/sentiment around it. People saw what happened in the post-halving which is why they are relating market pump to it. In my understanding based on the past market behaviour, the market would experience pre-halving and post-halving effects, and as you can see, the pre-halving effect is happening in the market of late due to FOMO. But the post-halving effect is way more and there is no way there won't be demands more due to people's belief, and Bitcoin must surely rise to that effect.

Good point you make about sentiment, and IMO, that is the only thing I can agree that can directly cause a bull run in this case; everyone running around to buy because it’s Bitcoin Halving (blindly buying because they heard it will pump or that miner’s reward will be reduced). But this isn’t the angle I was coming from. What I’m saying is that the value of Bitcoin has nothing to do with Bitcoin halving at this point. How many more Bitcoin before it’s over? we have a huge percent of the total supply of bitcoin already in circulation, so? It’s stuff like the adoption/expansion, etc, that determines the bull run at this point. Are we going to rely on sentiment for a bull run? I don’t think that’s organic. In fact, even after all this convo, it is possible that the sentiment isn’t even enough to do anything to Bitcoin price. I can still quote my initial reply, I said that we should zero our mind from a bull run happening after the halving. Not because it cant happen but because it isn’t tied to the halving. Bull run can happen at any time. It can happen before or after the halving. Maybe I mis-expressed my thoughts in my last reply, but this should be a better explanation.
